Patient's question:
What should I do about asthenozoospermia? Last year, the checkup showed only low sperm density, but a few days ago, the test revealed asthenozoospermia. I really want to have a child now, but the doctor said it's impossible with the current condition. How should I take care of myself? What should I do about asthenozoospermia?Doctor's answer:
